I am trying to respond on the talk page to the rubbish reply given by Nishidani below but am being told that Nishidani is no longer active on Wikipedia. How do I proceed without engaging in an edit war? I suspect Nishidani was set up and then deleted by the author to avoid talk.
Thanks ElBeavo.

Why can't I upload my article?! Persist-Resistant ( talk) —Preceding undated comment added 16:14, 11 September 2019 (UTC)
Message to administrators/editors. I am a bit clumsy with accounts, passwords etc. (I have been known to pay the same utility bill multiple times). A fair amount of time elapsed between my first entry into the Wiki community and my second (more than 4 years, I think). On that second occasion, I mistakenly opened a second account and never again intentionally used the first one. Recently, I visited the Teahouse and asked to have the first account removed. Kevin informed me that I could not do so but that it was not a problem if I only use one account. I now notice that there is a message on my talk page that says I am "a user of multiple accounts". It is far more accurate to state that I opened a second account by mistake and cannot close it. Is there any way to remove or qualify the message --user of multiple accounts -- as it is potentially misleading and may imply something negative to the community. I am currently being paid to write a page for my company, Virage Simulation, and I do not want my early inexperience and clumsy entry into the Wiki community to reflect poorly on my current efforts to demonstrate transparency. Any advice will be appreciated, thanks DriverSafety ( talk) 15:17, 11 September 2019 (UTC)

The link to Auma on the wikipedia "List of Villages in Hedmark" mistakenly points to Germany. It should link to a page that says "Creating Auma, Hedmark" and the template that says a Wikipedia article needs to be created.
I can change the link, but how do I create that page?

For more than six months or so I'd been informed via email from several people close to me or strangers that my wiki page needs more links and I dont know how to fix it or who could help me. I did a couple editing in 2016 ago and is still showing this on my wiki page and I dont know how to fix that too so is not showing at all, "This article may rely excessively on sources too closely associated with the subject, potentially preventing the article from being verifiable and neutral. (November 2016)" I havent created an acct, as far as I can remember, so if I do so can I then make the right changes without hurting my credibility on wiki?
Per instance below is telling me that it needs a source but if you click where it says Weston Gallery it will take you straight into their website and anybody an find me under their artists.
"Gallery Representation This section does not cite any sources. Please help improve this section by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (July 2018) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)"
So should all of those links be also be shown below where is says: External links?
Also under gallery representation i would love to include a new gallery which started representing me a couple months ago: www.ObscuraGallery.Net in Santa Fe, NM.
So who could help me each time I need to add or edit something right away?
I also dont know how to include my photo ( a portrait of me) at the right top side of the page like many other artist have on their on pages.
THanks so much for any help!

Hello, I've been working on a film festival article that had lots of problems. It was missing all of its original links... They were all dead links because the individual links were compiled into one large pdf. These links were mostly all from the festival's website. I modified plus removed some of the content and located multiple newspaper articles to support the remaining content. There had been several tags added. They were removed but one was added back again,'This article relies too much on references to primary sources.' I've worked considerably more on the article to resolve the issue but am not experienced enough to fully understand if the only issue is the use of the festival's website.

Hi to all, I have been Checking about This Indian actress called Janhvi Kapoor and found that this has been banned by Admins to create , Since she is a star in Bollywood and have already won the "Zee Cine Award for Best Female Debut" for her movie Dhadak [1] , So i guess that this title must be manuplated by fans or people who did'nt knew how to create the article and eventually got this banned, so my question is if i can recreate it in a proper way, if yes then how? or any admin can help me in creating this one because she passes the notablity factor i guess Jhummu ( talk) 17:26, 12 September 2019 (UTC)

at the top of the draft when you feel it's ready to go live, and a reviewer will take a look at it. The text itself is OK and inline referencing is good (if one really wants to nitpick, the last paragraph might be undue detail - for instance, which organization does not [hold] several members-only events around the world every year?). However, I am not sure the refs demonstrate notability (see WP:ORGCRIT) - the only sources that deal at length with AFIRE are bisnow and cooperator, whose reliability I am not sure of.

Wikipedia:Articles for creation is a guideline for creating an article. Bicycle Thieves is an example of an article about an Italian movie. The movie you wish to write about may not be notable enough to justify an article. Required will be references to articles written about the movie. The two references you have are not useful.

My client and I have been struggling to get their Wikipedia page included. Each time we believe we are compliant in all aspects of Wikipedia's guidelines, we find out we are the exact opposite! I was directed here to inquire with any questions as they arise. Please take a look at our (third revised) draft and let me know if the language and citations follow the guidelines. Thank you!

at the top of the draft when you feel it's ready to go live, and a reviewer will take a look at it. The text itself is OK and inline referencing is good (if one really wants to nitpick, the last paragraph might be undue detail - for instance, which organization does not [hold] several members-only events around the world every year?). However, I am not sure the refs demonstrate notability (see WP:ORGCRIT) - the only sources that deal at length with AFIRE are bisnow and cooperator, whose reliability I am not sure of.

Hi, template TBA does not work in this page (because I added template to the merged lines). Can someone please help? Patriccck ( talk) 11:29, 12 September 2019 (UTC)
colspan
or rowspan
, they need to be put before the template call and there must be no vertical bar |
in between them". This applies to many cell formatting templates which have to add code before the bar so they add the bar themselves. Fixed by

What should I do when I'm feeling dubious about some information included in an article but I can't check the source because of a paywall? Thank you! Shannend29 ( talk) 23:56, 12 September 2019 (UTC)
How do I publish my page, once it is finished in Sandbox? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cinemaking1 ( talk • contribs) 00:19, 13 September 2019 (UTC)

So this is about an Italian movie I watched. Its a nice one but unfortunately there are no articles on it so I decided to write one. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zeenatsaleh ( talk • contribs)
Wikipedia:Articles for creation is a guideline for creating an article. Bicycle Thieves is an example of an article about an Italian movie. The movie you wish to write about may not be notable enough to justify an article. Required will be references to articles written about the movie. The two references you have are not useful.

How slowly can one expect the review and amendment process to take for a new starter article on a new company, seeded by a COI employee? Days, weeks, months? Assuming the starter article is lightweight and lists only a handful of basic facts with citations to get the article started. And of course that the article follows publishing guidelines and resembles a typical entry for a new company. Frazierjason ( talk) 00:25, 13 September 2019 (UTC)
Currently there is a small edit war taking place at the article
Sahraa Karimi related to where she was born - Afghanistan or Iran. I say Afghanistan according to her IMDB profile and other references calling her an Afghan/from Afghanistan.
I would request an uninvolved editor/admin to help clear this up.
I have created a section for this on the
talk page. Thanks.

As a new editor in the Wikipedia world, can I create new article pages? If not, for how long will I have to wait? I do editorial works in real life. How's that in here?

I just undid an unconstructive edit, and I just started wondering if there's a warning template you can leave on a vandal's talk page. Many thanks xx GOLDIEM J ( talk) 00:19, 13 September 2019 (UTC)
